During the summer I worked at the hamburger stand across from main beach. I remember it was owned by one of my school mates,father. By the way, I never stole the $5.just gave out the wrong change! Not bitter…lol My crazy,nutty mother kept all my money, for reasons of her own,Im sure. At any rate, I survived it all, due to the fact I lived in Laguna Beach!! Could not have asked for a better down home place to live in the 60’s. Walking everywhere, and or putting out that thumb when I had to get back in from the canyon. I still love you all. It was so eyeopening to see you all at the 40th! Bet you never thought I would look that good!!! LOL Bless you all

I miss the local businesses, and was so sad to see mall stores seen cross country show up to replace Fahrenheit 451 and Mariners — but then, they did in Carmel and Encinitas and La Jolla and Santa Barbara. I wish they had been replaced by locally owned companies instead of corporate giants — I find it more interesting. Thankfully local artists seem to be selling.

I would love to live at home, but i, like a lot of local kids in so many So Cal communities, can’t afford to live there. Unless parents have a house to pass down or the kids happen to be in big dollar jobs, Laguna is now a very expensive place.

I consider myself so lucky to have lived there. Now I am in Oregon, largely because I like small town atmospheres and crazy nonconformists! Thanks Catherine — you look so familiar!
